Is Old Holborn Blue Stronger Than Other Old Holborn Blends?

Yes. Old Holborn Blue is the dark Virginia blend in the range, so it tastes fuller and stronger than the lighter Yellow and White versions. Yellow and White are smoother, and the Orange blend is aromatic. Blue suits smokers who want body from a roll-your-own smoke.

The colour of the pouch tells you the style. Blue is dark Virginia, Yellow is lighter and smoother, White is lighter again, and Orange is aromatic. If Blue feels too full, the Yellow pouch is the natural step down.

What Does Old Holborn Blue Taste Like?

Old Holborn Blue tastes like a dark Virginia tobacco, leaning toward a fuller, more robust character than a light blend. It is the heavier choice in the Old Holborn range, aimed at smokers who want a strong, traditional roll-your-own smoke rather than a mild or aromatic one.

Dark Virginia gives a heavier draw than the golden Virginia used in lighter blends. If you usually smoke a mild pouch, expect a noticeable step up in body. Roll a thinner cigarette on your first try to judge how it suits you.

How to Roll Old Holborn Blue

Take a pinch of tobacco about the length of your paper, spread it evenly along the crease, and roll firmly without squeezing out the airflow. A filter tip cools the draw and keeps loose strands out of your mouth.

Dark tobacco burns a little slower than a light blend, so a slightly thinner roll works well. Keep the pouch sealed between rolls and store it somewhere cool, away from a hot car or a sunny windowsill. Add slim tips from our filters category to finish each roll.
